Someone said Hurricane Quinn hit landfall in County Antrim yesterday.They were referring to the boundless energy of Christine Quinn, Speaker & President of New York City Council who has also been described as the third most important New Yorker!
Speaker Quinn has come to Belfast, influenced by Máirtín Ó Muilleoir of Belfast Media Group and myself at The Presidents' Club.
Christine is officiating at tonights prestigious Aisling Awards.....more about that again...
This morning Christine led a discussion at the Presidents' Club with an eclectic group of entrepreneurs, technologists, investors, fund managers, creative companies and professionals. She gave us ideas about innovative tax credits for small businesses, about lowest tender +10% to favour local businesses, about creative use of old buildings, of a community industrial kitchen to stimulate entrepreneurs in the food sector......
Many thanks to Belfast Media Group for the pictures and support. Good luck all with the Aisling Awards tonight ;-)
